| Exchanged IOL group (n = 51) |
Repositioned IOL group (n = 38) |
P value | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Early complications | |||
| Corneal edema at 1 week postoperatively, n (%) | 14 (27.5) | 2 (5.3) | 0.007 |
| Vitreous hemorrhage, n (%) | 2 (3.9) | 1 (2.6) | 0.739 |
| Hypotony, n (%) | 2 (3.9) | 3 (7.9) | 0.421 |
| IOP elevation, n (%) | 2 (3.9) | 1 (2.6) | 0.593 |
| Late complications | |||
| Cystoid macular edema, n (%) | 4 (7.8) | 2 (5.3) | 0.631 |
| Pupillary optic capture of the IOL, n (%) | 2 (3.9) | 2 (5.3) | 0.763 |
| Redislocation of the IOL, n (%) | 0 (0) | 1 (2.6) | 0.244 |
| Corneal decompensation, n (%) | 1 (2.0) | 0 (0) | 0.385 |
IOL = intraocular lens; IOP = intraocular pressure.
P values were determined using the chi-square test.
